Directed by: John Wayne, Ray Kellogg
Starring: John Wayne, David Janssen, Jim Hutton, Aldo Ray
Trivia: Even though the US military had a big part in the production of this film they asked the producer (John Wayne) not to credit them because they thought the movie was so pro-military that it bordered on propaganda.
Trivia: David Jassen's nickname around the set was "Klutzy." He couldn't walk three feet without falling over something.
Trivia: Many real veterans of Vietnam who were stationed at Bragg (among them my father) refused to talk to Wayne at any time.
Other mistake: After one of Col. Kirby's soldiers has been killed he takes the dead soldier's M-16 and smashes it against a tree. Instead of a magazine the rifle has a plastic sound box, because the 'rifle' is really a toy made by Mattel.
